[Qgis-user] Pass attribute in QML styling file

[Nathanael Boehm]

Never mind thanks, I found the Rendering Order dialog which mentions
rendering "passes" so I figured that's what the attribute correlates to
(and explains why doing the outline in a consecutive pass means your inner
lines all connect nicely).

QGIS is pretty awesome, good work to the dev community :)
